in a while.
I sat leaning against the wall with my arms clasped.
The wound on his left arm was gone, but a burning pain lingered.
“...Whoa.”
I sighed.
It’s a shame because the response was quick.
[What the hell... what...]
“What do you think it is?”
I looked down with an annoyed tone.
A fat dove fluttered at my feet.
The dove swung around in place, scanning its wings and body in turn.
[This gnome... what the hell did you do to me!]
“You said you wanted a body? You did what you wanted. Are you mad at me for not thanking me?”
[No way...]
“Yes.”
“Gu...gut?!”
The dove’s eyes widened.
“You became a dove.”
[...]
“It’s good that I got a body. By the way, the pigeon’s name is Gugu-Kon.”
[What the hell!]
Actually, I didn’t expect it to end like this either.
I didn’t know that the monsters from Advent Dungeon would appear in front of me.
It was the first time I had witnessed the process of descending and imprinting.
‘Anyway...’
I sat down on the floor.
I gulped down the second potion and looked at him again.
The dove was staggering, teasing its fat feet. He lowered his head to look down and inspected the wings. It seemed that he couldn’t understand the situation.
[This nooooom! A lowly human being to this body...!]
After observing the body for about 5 minutes, the pigeon shouted at me as if it had finally accepted the reality.
[Take it back immediately! Otherwise, I’ll give you a bowl of muk!]
“How can I get it back?”
[Are you asking because you don’t know?]
“I’m asking because I really don’t know.
[That’s... that’s that...!]
The dove that had been pondering for a while spread its wings.
[Return it anyway! I was trying to give you the honor of being an alter ego of a great race, and then you did something like this. There’s no shame. Han Israt!]
“Gu-gu-gu! Gu-gu!”
The pigeon’s beak opened wide and closed.
[human! If you bring me back, my life will be spared. Choose wisely! No one can survive if they suffer the wrath of the great race.]
“They said they wanted to take my body.
[Not dying. It is to become one with me and come to life.]
When I stayed still, the pigeon covered its mouth and laughed.
“Kukukuk...”
[Are you scared? good. give me a special chance put me back in your left arm While counting ten! I’ll count from now on. Ten...]
“Kueek!”
I grabbed the dove by the scruff of its neck and pulled it up.
“Even the chickens bark loudly.”
[This Noh Ohm! Do you still not know your fountain? Bug-like human subject...]
“Kkeuk!”
with a plop!
I plunged the pigeon’s head into the bucket next to it.
The dove flapped its wings and struggled, but there’s no way a midday bird has any strength. I drowned him even deeper to the bottom of the bucket.
“Kuhk, kkeuk, gurreuk...!”
After counting 30 seconds, I took it out of the bucket.
[This cheeky bastard! The head...]
Second plunge.
I counted 30 seconds again.
[I’ll kill you...]
Third plunge.
This time I counted 1 minute.
“Kirararak!”
It wasn’t until the fourth time that he quieted down.
I grabbed the head of a dove lying on a pile of straw and pressed it down.
“Don’t mess around.”
“Curr... Curr!”
“It’s noisy, so shut up.”
I smashed the pigeon’s head to the ground and forced the beak open to stuff the rice straw into it.
The fallen dove flapped its wings.
“You don’t seem to know the situation. What a great race, right now you’re just a pig-like pigeon chick. Do you understand? If you twist it, try transforming into that proud dragon.”
[This bastard...]
“You still don’t know?”
I smirked and stepped on his head.
A fragile skull. With just a little bit of force, his head will shatter like potato chips.
[If I kill myself... I won’t be able to use the Black Dragon Blood!]
“It doesn’t matter. Just think you stepped on poop and get a new imprint. It’s better than being beaten by a chicken that doesn’t even know what to do.”
I knew it was strange.
If it was simple immunity, there was no way I couldn’t break through this guy’s defense. However, this guy did not suffer a single wound in the slashing with numerous attributes. It meant that some other force was at work.
‘It’s true that it’s a huge monster.’
I couldn’t even bring out the dragon in its original form.
This guy was the top class among Advent monsters I’ve met.
“hey.”
[Why but.]
“There are three more similar to you?”
Because it’s called the four generations.
[Yes. But I’m the strongest!]
“First of all, return the imprint and tell me. He said he left it out on purpose.”
[joy. Don’t be surprised.]
Gugu-Kon stuck out his front wings to me.
Paperweight! Dark red lightning began to penetrate my left arm.
This time there was no ominous feeling like before.
[Bara Bomb!]
[Engraving has been completed.]
[Special abilities are engraved on ‘Han (★★★★)’ body!]
[True Black Dragon Blood (S Lv. 1)]
[The pure lineage of the ancient black dragon. Proof blood.]
[Effect: All attribute defense power + 20%]
[Inherent skill: 1. Black Dragon Rin (Duration: 1 second)]
[※There are many other unknown skills.
] I glanced over.
Not much has been added. The one-line explanation that there was an unknown skill was all.
‘You’ve risen to S rank.’
It may not make much of a difference now.
However, as the level and specifications of the imprint rise, the hidden ability will gradually be opened.
That would be the ‘qualification’ that guy said.
I turned my left arm.
There seemed to be no difference, but at the end of the movement, a strange sensation came along.
It felt like my arms had been stretched to three.
If you had a tail, would it feel like this?
“hey.”
[Why?]
“I said earlier that there are three more guys similar to you.”
[Hey, you mean those bitches. Don’t talk.]
Gugukon clicked his tongue in displeasure.
If this guy is the ancestor of one of the four major families, there must be similar beings in the other three families.
‘I guess there are at least 3 more S-class marks in Taoni.’
this is quite lucky
Like the belonging hero, the imprint is different depending on the account.
However, there were many places where there was no A grade, let alone S grade.
‘If you bring all the other three...’
I laughed.
It’s not some drag ball.
Having a lot of imprints is not necessarily a good thing.
It’s a matter of how to grow and use it.
‘If the opportunity arises, I’ll give it to other kids.’
It doesn’t mean that I alone have a higher spec.
[If you use my power properly, you will be able to become invincible.]
“That’s because there are so many monsters. Anyway, if you are there, it would be helpful, right?”
[It is true. Just by being near me, the source of power, you can awaken your hidden abilities. I’ll help you.]
“Is that so?”
I smiled and looked at my left arm.
He held the sword in his right hand.
‘Let’s try an experiment.’
I knew instinctively how to write.
It was similar to the feeling when using a skill. I took a deep breath and lifted the feeling.
[Imprint activated!]
Charleuk!
In an instant, scales sprouted from his entire left arm.
Black scales protruded from the sleeve of his left arm.
Without hesitation, I thrust the sword into my forearm.
[This hero is immune to physical damage!]
Caang!
The scales quickly disappeared as soon as the blade was repelled.
It’s still like this. It only lasted 1 second. It seems that there is quite a bit of time to activate it.
It seemed like my body was tired.
You have to practice constantly.
In order to use it in actual combat, it was necessary to train to use it with Exceed or the Swordsman Soul.
[Hahahaha! How is it? Can you feel the infinite power?]
“...”
Splash!
I grabbed Goo-Goo-Kon by the nape of his neck and threw him into the water bottle.
“Kwu, kurrureu!”
[Why?!]
“The tone is bad.”
